Search With
Clarity and Intent

CB & Associates approaches high-touch recruiting as a strategic process, not a transactional one. The firm works closely with clients to understand the business need, define the leadership gap, and shape the search around the outcome that matters most. That means senior-level attention, targeted evaluation, and direct communication from the start of the search through the hire.

Hear What Others Are Saying

Cindy was an absolute pleasure to work with along our journey. She showed passion, patience and persistent during the time I have been working with her. She understands what the Employers needs are and knows if the candidate is a good fit almost immediately! When we first spoke she didn’t promise anything that was not delivered, that is very rare. In a quick turn world I feel she took the time to get to know me personally and I never felt like she was just trying to plug me in and move on and I really appreciate that!! I would recommend any serious professionals looking for more than just a recruiter to reach out and see the difference. Thanks for everything CB!!!!

She was professional, courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, and it was evident that she truly loves her job. She helped me navigate the interview and offer process and I couldn’t be happier – both with the experience with Cindy and my new position! Working with Cindy was such a pleasure, and I would highly recommend her services! Thanks for everything, Cindy!

Cindy is one of the best recruiters I have ever known. As a Human Resources manager, I relied on her expertise for over 20 years, and today, I am proud to call her a friend. Cindy's honesty, warmth, and genuine care for people have always stood out. Throughout my career as an HR practitioner—from Manager to VP in the manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution sectors with companies like CalComp, Springs Industries, and Vans—Cindy was an invaluable asset. She consistently made me look good by bringing in the right people, even before the era of the Internet!
